Hi all...
Dunno if anyone else had noticed this, but in case not:
I've noticed that Telkom don't Cap you as you hit the 3GB limit, but rather the following day when a batch or possibly manual (knowing Telkom) process is run to transfer your line to the capped service.
This means that if you were planning to download a couple of 600MB ISO's, i'd wait until near the end of the month just before you hit the cap and then run right through the night!
Cheers, R.
 
Be sure to disconnect before 12PM though. Do a search on the forum to find out what happens if you don't.
 
Yeah, I got sent the usual email notification to say I was 3.2 GB over the limit, then this morning managed to get an hour and a half of streaming radio at 160kbps before BOOM! A lucky break but don't think I'm now on friendly terms with you Telkom. That would be most naive.
